Gemini - Taurus Love Compatibility


   


Sign GraphicGEMINI AND TAURUS LOVE COMPATIBILITY


HOW COMPATIBLE ARE GEMINI AND TAURUS IN A LOVE RELATIONSHIP?

Although in many ways it may seem that couples with consecutive Star Signs, like Gemini and Taurus, have little in common, because there’s a better than average probability that they will share Mercury and/or Venus Signs, they often have far more similarities, and thus a higher level of love compatibility, than one might expect.

GEMINI-TAURUS COMPATIBILITY OVERVIEW

For sure, there are some big differences between Gemini and Taurus due to the conflicting Air-Earth combination, Taurus basically being quite slow-acting, practical and steady, while Gemini operates at a much faster pace, is more of a thinker than a doer and tends to be much more changeable.

Nevertheless – probably because they're next-door neighbors in the Zodiac – consecutive Star Signs like Gemini and Taurus are traditionally considered to have quite a good level of love compatibility and a reasonable chance of understanding each other and getting on. There’s a surprising ability to tolerate each other’s contrasting way of going about things, and they can generally relate to one another’s weak points, which each can help the other to overcome.

Taurus, for example, can often sympathize with Gemini’s restlessness and lack of persistence, helping it to gain a greater sense of calm and develop a bit more sticking power. In turn, Gemini can provide Taurus with ideas to translate into concrete action – and can encourage it to be a little less fixed and a little more adaptable.

In a live-in relationship, Gemini and Taurus can actually make a good team. Social butterfly Gemini loves a partner it can rely on to keep everything ticking over on the domestic front while it's out busy networking – and who better than the rock-steady Bull who loves nothing better than creating a comfortable and solid home. In return, Gemini – one of the most gifted schmoozers in the Zodiac – can help Taurus towards the material success it so longs for by introducing it to all the right people and teaching it the gift of the gab.




GEMINI-TAURUS EMOTIONAL COMPATIBILITY

Emotionally, there are some big differences between Gemini and Taurus. Gemini thrives on change and variety, while Taurus dreads any kind of disruption or upheaval and prefers everything always to be the same. A Taurean’s pace is slow, steady and deliberate, a Gemini’s is fast and dizzy. In a love relationship, the Fixed Earth Sign craves routine and commitment, but the Mutable Air Sign quickly gets bored and restless unless it feels emotionally free.

Basically what the Bull wants most in life is emotional security, yet this is anathema to the average Gemini man or woman. Whether or not these contrasts create problems, depends on the willingness of the two people to learn from, and counterbalance, each other’s characteristic temperaments – and how much they genuinely want this relationship to work.




GEMINI-TAURUS SEXUAL COMPATIBILITY

Sexually, Gemini and Taurus may be somewhat mis-matched initially: Gemini can be a bit too cerebral and too unpredictable for the down-to-earth Bull, while for excitement-seeking Gemini, Taurus can seem a bit fixed in its sexual technique, take too long to get going and be too much on the possessive side. But for good sex, all that's needed is for Gemini to switch on more to the pleasures of the flesh, and for Taurus to liven up its repertoire. Then with Taurus's sensuality and Gemini's bright ideas, these guys can really rock and roll!


GEMINI-TAURUS MENTAL COMPATIBILITY

There are some fundamental differences between Taurus’s slow, careful and very down to earth way of thinking and Gemini’s much more quick-witted and highly logical approach. As a result, Gemini sometimes finds the Bull a little mentally dull and slow on the uptake, while the Taurus sees Gemini as an irritating smart-ass who never stops talking and tries to be too clever for its own good!

What Gemini needs to understand is that, unlike itself, Taurus needs plenty of time to thoroughly absorb and digest an idea before moving onto the next one and suffers from mental overload if asked to focus on too many topics in too short succession. When an important issue is up for discussion, Gemini should avoid pressurizing the Bull for a quick decision and allow it to think things through at its own pace and in its own sweet time.


GEMINI-TAURUS COMPATIBILITY CHALLENGES

The degree of compatibility challenges in a Gemini-Taurus relationship really depends on just how representative the two people are of their respective star signs. A stereotypical Taurus is excruciatingly fixed and earth-bound. An all-Gemini individual can rarely sit still or keep their feet on the ground for long! In the worst case scenario these two will find it incredibly difficult to co-exist in a close relationship without driving each other to distraction.

But because of how horoscopes work, people born under neighboring Sun Signs like Gemini and Taurus often embody some of the other sign’s characteristics and have far more in common than you would initially expect – this being especially the case if they are romantically attracted to each other. For this reason, the odds of a Gemini-Taurus love match turning out to be successful are estimated at 50/50.
